susan: dr. litman's conclusion was poor judgment, mismanagement, and or incompetence but not violations of law. james: i think that has to stand. until we discover otherwise. susan: when you look across the work you have done and here you are at the latter days of a long career watching the american presidency and the reaction of the american public to it, what is your level of optimism and confidence about where we are as a country in terms of our government? james: i tend to be optimistic. i suppose i could be charged with being pollyanna-ish but i don't think the record of misconduct in the american presidency is surprising. i do not take it to be overwhelming. it is clumped. it does not have trends. there were cleaner administrations and more dirty ones. there are administrations that prevent misconduct at the highest levels and others that do not. i do not see any trend. i tend to think we are probably, and we have always been at about the same level of good conduct and misbehaving conduct,

susan: you are a stash [video clip] susan: you are a small government person. mrs. james: i was hoping as we formed the department of homeland security that there would be some economies of scale where we could shrink government. one of the things we learn about government is that government typically does not go in that direction. susan: as you look back at bringing all of those departments together when there was so much stress and government at that time, is there anything you would have done differently? when looking back, did it turn out the way you anticipated? mrs. james: it did not. when we were selling the department of homeland security as a great idea, one which i still believe was the right thing to do, i think that i would have put more measures, or tried to get more measures into the legislation that would force the economies of scale, so that we could see governments shrink instead of grow. susan: one of the ways the trump administration is looking at cutting government is eliminating the office of personnel management. is that a good idea? mrs. james

susan: the war room? james: it is maintaining a campaign but the campaign may also be to cover things up. we saw that in the clinton administration and we may be seeing it today though it has yet to be proven. again, like so many institutions, it has its strengths and weaknesses and i think it is probably now always going to be the case, a campaign war room. susan: did the clintons invented? invent it? it -- james: i think so. crises, howber of did they fit into the parameters? thing that happened during the clinton presidency was the presidency became fodder for television, cable television, and for talk radio. bill clinton was the first presidency that had to face that racket, that kind of opposition, had to face clips and comments going viral. digitally, on television, and by radio. and travel gate and whitewater were, to some degree, hatched in that context. in that political and partisan situation. and, every president since then has had to have been on guard from those kinds of attacks from the righ

susan: your reaction? james: i don't think one can hear that again and again and not be horrified by the statement. if we are a government of law and the presidents are supposed to meet the canons of the law, that statement makes no sense. if a supreme court is asked to rule on that, i think it would have to say no. it is contrary to the entire history, tradition, and eat of thef -- and ethos american government. susan: how did congress respond in law to some of the actions of the nixon administration? james: held hearings. susan: i'm thinking about changing the law like the war powers act and others they did to put some constraints on the actions of the president. james: the ones i am most conversant, because i was working in some degree to bring them about, campaign financing, conflict of interest legislation which reduced the orbit in which conflicts of interest are permitted and so on. there were no grand changes. there obviously weren't changes that have prohibited subsequent administrations from acti

susan page, washington bureau chief for usa today. matt zapotosky, national security reporter for "the washington post," and peter baker, chief white house correspondent for "the new york times" who also happens to be co-author of the book "impeachment: an american history." good evening and welcome to you all. jeremy, given your background in this line of work, i'd like to begin with you for our viewers who couldn't see today's live coverage, who have only seen snippets of it, sum up what we witnessed today and sum up for us, if you can, the gravity of what we learned today on live television. >> well, the significance of today really was the putting forth of the whistle-blower complaint. the acting director of national intelligence admiral maguire appeared before the house permanent select committee on intelligence. and his testimony really centered around the process by which that complaint was shared with the white house, the justice department, and then ultimately after some machinations inside the executive branch, belatedly sha

first susan and other great city is leaving the e.u. is more important than anything else they regard as undemocratic and anything short of leaving on the 31st of october as a betrayal of democracy. opinion polls are showing that most people who voted leave in the referendum still want this to be seen through almost at any cost and even without agreement with the e.u. short term consequences like food shortages rising inflation even job losses don't seem to scare them. but pro e.u. m.p.'s like vera hobhouse i determined not to let it come to this it's have priority to prevent leaving without a deal and then it should all go back to the people for another referendum people said for a long time of course we're going to have a deal of course is the easiest thing in history everything has turned out entirely different from what was promised in 2016 so more than 3 years on death and that the democracy has to be practiced and the people have to be asked again. day after day susan nicholson comes to palm and to tell a peace that she and her fe

susan, sorry. i'm looking at katherine. sorry about that. go on, susan. pardon me. >> nobody's tried this since hen henry kissinger, and there is a reason. the nature of the job is that it's impossible to be both the national security adviser and the secretary of state. it's i think a reminder of how difficult it has been and it has proven to be to find people who can successfully work with donald trump in the sensitive national security po mike pompeo is the last survivor, literally the last survivor of the president's original national security team. and as secretary of state he's proven he has in particular i think the key quality that is enabled him to survive, which is a determination to never, ever be caught out publicly disagreeing with the president, which of course john bolton took the opposite approach. but i've heard, and sources told me this was out there as a possibility for several months as bolton's firing was seen as imminent. i think it's a farfetched idea and a sign of trump's difficulty in recruiting someone from the outside to do this

susan is in a different situation. > i'm a reporter and i'm not a commentator. i don't think my opinion of things matters but what i find out by doing reporting and offer context and analysis. but i think if you have really strong pips or have a clear partisan tilt, you shouldn't go into the field you want to, because you should go and do something else. u should be an activist or commentator because i think it is so important in our democracy to have outlets that everyone believes is telling them the truth and that is something that has faced in the mainstream media has eroded and terrible for the mainstream media and bad for us as a country. so reporters, what i try to do and other reporters try to do it is like you are working a muscle. it is easier for me to be as carefully objective and fair than it was with the first story i ever wrote. this is the discipline of being a mainstream journalist who is trying to offer people not what i think, but what i see and what sense i can make of what i see. mr. beschloss: in my case, history is more objective is not the

susan? susan: we saw the seasonally adjusted for the 20-city index see zero growth in home prices from june to july. you want to do a non-seasonally adjusted that was up .1% but less than what was expected by economists. year over year, 2% growth in july, weakest annual growth since august 2012. home prices are not going up as much as they used to. the trend is going down. however, i would say that we did see a turn-around in august for existing home sales. stuart: all right. we will figure that out. not sure where the housing market stands at this point but clearly, home price rises are slowing down. susan: slowing down. also, the fhfa came up with home prices in july, up .4%. as for the year through to july looks like we're up 5%. you are still getting more money for your homes. stuart: just a little bit. thank you, susan. take a look at google. i can't believe this. there's a big win for google in europe. i want to know in what way, how, ashley, how did google win -- ashley: well, europe
